About Everyone Knows

Tired of politically correct spin and media dodging the obvious? This podcast says what everyone's thinking but afraid to say. No sugar-coating, no corporate sponsors dictating content—just honest analysis of current events and corruption the mainstream won't touch. We call out stupidity when we see it, expose corruption hiding in plain sight, and discuss stories the establishment buries. Questionable money trails, double standards, policies that make zero sense—if nobody's talking about it, we will. This isn't left vs. right; it's truth vs. spin. No scripts, no PR team, just real talk.

   Ep. 35 - Trump's $5000 Stimulus check | Everyone Knows

   President Trump says every adult citizen gets five thousand dollars if Republicans win the House and the Senate in November. For a married couple, that is ten thousand dollars. Here’s what actually stands behind the promise. Trump’s $5,000 Check: Who Gets It, Who Pays for It and What Happened Last Time | Everyone Knows Ep. 35 Everyone Knows | Episode 35 | Starborne Studios This week President Trump went on camera and promised five thousand dollars to every adult citizen in America, calling it a dividend paid for by tariffs. It is at least the fourth time he has made the promise since September, and it is tied to one condition: Republicans keeping both the House and the Senate. Brian lays out who would get the check, how it would get through Congress, where more than a trillion dollars would come from, and what happened the last time Washington mailed money to almost every adult in the country. Three parts. All of them matter. FIRST, the promise. What the President said, how the pledge moved from every citizen to adults only and why Vice President Vance calls it a dividend for workers. Brian walks through what has to happen in Congress for a check to go out, including the budget reconciliation route that needs only fifty one Senate votes. He also separates the five thousand dollar promise from the two payments actually going out this month: ninety dollars for some Medicare enrollees and a five hundred dollar refund for nearly one million Obamacare customers. SECOND, the money. One round of checks costs about one point two trillion dollars. Tariffs brought in about one hundred and ninety five billion dollars last year. In February the Supreme Court struck down the emergency tariffs that made up about half of that money, refunds started going out, and in June net tariff revenue went negative for the first time in American history. Brian covers the deficit estimates, the case supporters make for the plan, and the only realistic ways left to pay for it. THIRD, the last time. The COVID checks of twenty twenty, the American Rescue Plan of twenty twenty one, the fourteen hundred dollar checks, and the union pension bailout buried inside that bill. Then inflation hit nine point one percent, mortgage rates more than doubled, and prices rose about twenty percent in four years. Brian goes through what economists at the San Francisco Federal Reserve found about how much of that came from the spending, the two thousand dollar dividend promised last fall, and where he lands on the five thousand dollar check. A straight read on what is happening and what it means for regular people. No theatrics, no party line, no soft edges. If you’re tired of the spin, you’re in the right place.

   Ep. 34 -2026 Midterms Elections: The Senate Races That Decide Everything | Everyone Knows

   The Democrat running for Senate in Texas has raised more than seventy million dollars. About half of his early money came from outside Texas. Here's who is really paying for the 2026 midterms. 2026 Midterms: The Senate Races, the Stock Ban and the Democrats' Plan | Everyone Knows Ep. 34 Everyone Knows | Episode 34 | Starborne Studios Election Day is November third, and early voting has already started in some states. Republicans hold the Senate fifty-three to forty-seven and the House two hundred twenty to two hundred thirteen. A handful of races decide who runs both. Brian lays out who is running, who is paying for it, and what the Democrats say they will do if they win. Three parts. All of them matter. FIRST, the Senate. In Texas, Ken Paxton, impeached by the Texas House and acquitted on every charge, faces James Talarico, who raised twenty seven million dollars in one quarter and thirty million in the next, much of it from California and New York, plus a Hollywood fundraiser in Los Angeles. In Maine, Democrats replaced their first nominee in July, and Susan Collins goes for a sixth term. In North Carolina, Roy Cooper answers for the thirty-five hundred inmates his administration let out early. Then Georgia, Ohio, Michigan, Alaska and Iowa. SECOND, the House. Senate Democrats blocked a stock trading ban that passed the House two hundred thirty-two to one hundred ninety-eight and that eight in ten Americans want, along with photo ID to vote. Then the map war that Texas started and California answered. Then the Social Security line every Democrat is running, checked against what the bill actually did, and the real reason Obamacare premiums jumped: Democrats wrote the end date into their own law. THIRD, the Democrats' plan. Lower costs with no numbers, from Chuck Schumer on down. Investigations of the President's family with names already attached and letters already going out. Ending the filibuster, two new states, four new senators and a thirteen seat Supreme Court. Then the record from the last time they had full control: Build Back Better, the American Rescue Plan, nine-point one percent inflation and "that didn't stop me." Plus the jobs, crime and border numbers Republicans are running on. A straight read on what is happening and what it means for regular people. No theatrics, no party line, no soft edges.

   Ep. 33 - Cuba in the Dark: The US Military Buildup, the Blackouts, and How It Ends | Everyone Knows

   On March 16, every light in Cuba went out at once. Eleven million people sat in the dark for more than a day, ninety miles from Florida, while an American aircraft carrier moved into the Caribbean. Cuba in the Dark: The US Military Buildup, the Blackouts, and How It Ends | Everyone Knows Ep. 33 Everyone Knows | Episode 33 | Starborne Studios A carrier strike group in the Caribbean. A federal murder indictment against Raul Castro. An Army Reserve message asking what units could be ready in ninety to one hundred and twenty days. Havana living on fifteen hours of blackout a day, with no fuel left to run the water pumps. Brian Bullock goes through what the United States has actually put in the water, how an island this close to home ran completely out of oil, and where all of it is heading. Three parts. All of them matter. FIRST, the buildup. The Nimitz strike group entered the Caribbean on May 20, the same day the Justice Department charged Raul Castro over the 1996 shootdown of two Brothers to the Rescue planes that killed four men. Nine days later the commander of Southern Command sat down with Cuban generals at the fence line at Guantanamo Bay. Then came the Army Reserve message this week. Brian takes each piece for what it is and what it is not, including the drone story that got a lot of play and the one thing Havana has conspicuously not done. He also sets the warships beside the other track running at the same time, the Secretary of State saying on the record that Washington is open to talking. SECOND, how the island ran dry. The Soviet Union propped Cuba up for thirty years, and when it collapsed Cubans lived through the Special Period, oxen back in the fields and people leaving on anything that floated. Venezuela replaced Moscow with up to a hundred thousand barrels of oil a day, until this January, when the oil stopped. Brian walks through what happened to the grid after that, what no power means inside a house, the law passed after the 1996 shootdown that took the embargo out of any president's hands, and why the country that ran on sugar now imports it. THIRD, what happens next. There are only a handful of ways this ends, and Brian lays every one of them out plainly, including the one almost nobody mentions, which is written into American law and quietly rules out the deal most people assume is possible. The deciding piece is not in Havana's speeches or Washington's warnings. It is sitting inside the Cuban military itself. Everyone Knows is one man reading the story straight. Who benefits, who gets hurt, why now, and what happens next. No panel, no talking points, no hedging. If you're tired of the spin, you're in the right place.
